    Jesus as Titus

    There is a consensus that Mark probably composed his work in or about the year 70 CE, after the failure of the First Jewish Revolt and the destruction of the Jerusalem Temple at the hands of the Romans. If so this would mean that it was also written after Titus took Gadara since that happened...

    Jesus beleived in destiny?

    How can they coexist? By definitin Laws physics are valid for everything at any point in time. There is no time and place where laws oh phicis are not valid so that free will could take its place. Those that defend free will never say anything on how it works or how it breaks laws of phisics...

    Do you think it's important whether others believe in God or not?

    I beleive our actions are predetermined by laws of phisics just like the actions of every other part of metter in the universe. Chemistry, bioligy, computer programs, beleives, emotions are just a way we encapsulate larger chaines of laws of phisics in order to more easily make predictions.
